An Original Vintage Theatrical Paperbacked Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More) Gunfight at the O.K. Corral, the classic 1957 John Sturges cowboy western starring Burt Lancaster (as Marshal Wyatt Earp), Kirk Douglas (as Doc Holliday), Rhonda Fleming, Jo Van Fleet, John Ireland (as Johnny Ringo), Lyle Bettger (as Ike Clanton), Dennis Hopper (as Billy Clanton), John Hudson (as Virgil Earp), DeForest Kelley (as Morgan Earp), Martin Milner (as Jimmy Earp), and Kenneth Tobey (as Bat Masterson). Note that Kelley and Milner, who played the other Earp brothers would go on to great fame on TV shows! Finally, there is no great evidence that any of these events ever occurred! They were written down many years after the fact, and were told by people who said they were there, but there is no corroboration for their stories. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that first release half-sheets on this classic movie have always been very rare (perhaps because the movie was quickly re-released in 1964). We have only auctioned the other style of half-sheet two times, and we have NEVER auctioned this style of half-sheet before! Note that this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a light paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (it means that the poster must be handled carefully, as the backing does not give it much added strength, but it is similar to having an unrestored poster, and yet it has been properly preserved). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards. This poster is still capable of being rolled and sent in a tube, but we would prefer to send it in a flat package, so there is no chance of damage. What IS paperbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. Prior to paperbacking, the poster had been folded once in each direction and it had tiny creases and little bits of paper loss on parts of the horizontal fold, with a lesser amount of wear on the vertical fold. It had writing on the back of the center of the poster, above the red box. It had pinholes in the corners and separation and small paper loss in the bottom 2" of the center of the poster. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to paperbacking. The poster was nicely backed and the above defects were well restored, and it displays well!
